Is Mila too close to Mia?

I have an 8 year old niece named Mia, whom we are close to, see almost once a week. DH is obsessed with naming our new LO (little one) due in March, Mila (pronounced Mee-la). I think they are too close. He disagrees. Thoughts?

But how do you feel about Mila, on its own merits? If you like it enough to consider it, go ahead and put it on the list - but if you don't like it and you're just trying to convince him it's too close to Mia, I think you'll have to be honest and tell him you don't want to name the baby Mila.

I do love Mila, it sounds great with her big sister Zoe, and I suggested it to DH (dear husband) without thinking about my niece actually. Then I remembered she is Mia. I loooooove Camille, DH (dear husband) said meh. I never thought to suggest Mila as her nn for that!! Thank you!!!! I was loving Cami as a nn for Camille also.
